    Android Questions: My phone has started showing full screen ads at random times, seemingly independently of any app.


    My phone has started showing full screen ads at random times, seemingly independently of any app.

    Posted: 28 Jul 2020 01:40 AM PDT

    I'll unlock my phone, and sometimes there'll be a full screen ad showing (which can be easily closed). Or one will pop up while I'm using the phone.

    I don't download a lot of different apps, but I did download a couple recently, which I have now deleted, in case it was them. But the problem persists.

    The ads don't seem to be tied to any particular app.

    any advice?

    Thanks.

    Posted: 28 Jul 2020 02:30 AM PDT

    In my quick settings in the bottom left corner it shows

    Posted: 28 Jul 2020 10:49 AM PDT

    Recently I've started getting an almost full screen notification when opening apps that have an update available. I find this incredibly annoying, yet Google nor I have found a way to turn these off.

    I checked the Touch Sampling Rate on my A70 using cmd and I have some questions.

    Posted: 28 Jul 2020 10:15 AM PDT

    The touch sampling rate numbers aren't stable, why is that? They keep going randomly between kinda 105 and 115, and occasionally reaching 120. But why does that happen? I have to say that by using the device alone I could tell that the touch sampling rate is shit because of how noticable the delay is when I'm doing stuff that require precision.

    Also, what are these numbers? Are they the "hz" or what? Because if they are, then there's no way the A70 has a close to 120hz touch sampling rate with that bad of a screen. So what is it, and how do I know the "hz" using those numbers?

    I also tested a couple other devices and here are all the results:

    A70: all the numbers between 105 - 115. Unstable.

    A50: all the numbers between 115 - 125. Unstable, like the A70.

    Nova 3i: 130 - 110. Stable as it's 130 and then 110 and then again 130 and then again 110. It stays like that.

    Nokia 3: 168 - 175. Stable at 170. (mostly gives 170 but sometimes gives numbers between 168 - 175).

    As for how these numbers translate to real life usage, they are correct. The Nokia 3 touch responsiveness is the best out of all of them, while the A70 is the worst. The A50 is better than the A70, and it's quite at the same level as the Nova 3i.

    Lastly, I wanted to ask you guys if there's any way that I can adjust these numbers to make them more stable on the A50 and A70 or if I can higher them or something like that. If you have any information please share them below. Thank you!

    A weird browser appeared

    Posted: 28 Jul 2020 09:42 AM PDT

    Hi. Yesterday, as I was clicking on a story in the Google app, i was greater with a browser choice: either my usual one, or "ace browser". I know it happens when you install a new browser, but I didn't. Actually, I haven't installed any new apps for weeks.

    I search the web and there seems to exist a browser by that name, but it's not on the Play store, and the icon I'll shown is not the one I see on the Net.

    One last weird thing: there's no sign of that browser or anything with that icon in my app list.

    So... Should I be concerned?

    I'm buying a new phone? I need some help.

    Posted: 28 Jul 2020 07:10 AM PDT

    I wanted to know what kind of RAM and storage I would need in the phone. My primary use for the phone: Whatsapp, YouTube, Google, Instagram. Other than that maybe a game or two(say, Clash Royale and Crossy Road), an app for podcasts and Prime Music. I don't take many pictures(doesn't mean the camera should be bad).

    What do you think RAM and storage should be?

    And any phone recommendations? I am looking at cheaper/lower end phones.

    Plus, what do RAM and storage actually mean.

    Thanks

    TCL 10L bands in Canada

    Posted: 28 Jul 2020 06:37 AM PDT

    I saw the TCL 10L being sold on telus.ca in canada, though the phone has a limited amount of bands available.

    I was wondering if I bought the unlocked version of the phone through amazon, would I still be able to use it with my SIM (in Canada)?

    Android randomly pausing playback on several apps

    Posted: 28 Jul 2020 06:29 AM PDT

    Hey folks. I recently experienced my phone randomly stopping my playback (mainly YouTube and Spotify). Not only on my phone but also when casting it to my Chromecast Ultra (both happens). I don't actually know what may cause it, but I thought about a system call for pause playback. Can someone help me out with this?

    Ps: sorry if I'm at the wrong subred, not sure about that

    Android reset apps while they are in standby

    Posted: 28 Jul 2020 06:00 AM PDT

    Hi guys, i expect you can help me.

    My phone (Mi A2 Lite) just reset the apps everytime I send them to background.

    E.G: I'm looking a video on youtube and change to whatsapp to answer some message. When i return to YT, it loads like it was the first time I run it and the video has gone like i have seen it.

    It happens too with reddit, when i'm reading comments from a post and I change the app for something, when i return to reddit, it sends me to the home page and reloads like I just opened the app in this moment.

    I have more exemples, if i didnt explain very well.

    Now I am running Android 10, but it was happening since the last android version.

    If you know how to resolve it before i reset it to factory settings, would be helpful.

    Thank you guys.

    PS: sorry bad english.

    I sent a message and blocked someone 2 days ago, today, I got the message back from my self and it says from an unknown sender and I can't reply, the unkown sender is not blocked. Is there any reason this happened? Maybe the person i blocked changed phone number or something. Or mayeb the message did not send?

    S20 stops charging after a few seconds

    Hi! My S20 is 1 month old and every time I plug it in, it stops charging after about 3-5 seconds. I've tried three cables and power outlets, so the problem is with the phone. I've also tried rebooting. The problem happened yesterday. What should I try?

    Tablet for art : Samsung Tab S6 lite or non lite?

    Posted: 27 Jul 2020 09:40 PM PDT

    Hello. I am a young artist that needs help choosing between the lite and non lite (6gb of ram and 128gb of storage) version of the S6 Tab.

    A lack of headphone jack isn't a bother for a tablet but heating would be a big problem.

    I prefer choosing an android tablet because I am on a tight budget and the lack of pro art software doesn't bother me.

    Non-Responsive Front and Wide Cam (on RN8T)

    Posted: 28 Jul 2020 03:27 AM PDT

    Trying to keep the story short:

    I, by mistake, deleted the whole internal storage of the mobile. When I connected it to the computer, all I saw was some folders with strange and long names like /(&^+'(^&FSG%('!645416+'. Of course not this, you got the idea. Then I kinda formatted the storage, and was left alone with TWRP.

    Ever since, my wide angle and front cameras don't work. I reverted to stock Xiaomi ROM an hour ago, yet it was also problematic: While the program said it is still being flashed, the mobile rebooted. Still, now I am on stock ROM, maybe with limited "fix", and with stock ROM I cannot use these two cameras as well.

    Before reverting, I tried,

    • Different custom ROMs (including Paranoid Android, Pixel Experience, LineageOS, and crDroid). The issue was not solved with any.
    • Permissiver, hoping that it is a permission issue. Yet nothing changed.
    • trCam to see if it is because of the "number" that the apps try to connect to the cams. Again no luck.

    I checked with Camera2API, and it shows only two cams (back main and front). It is okay, I am told, yet am unsure.

    Strangely while these two don't work, macro does work. I'd prefer no macro but front and wide but it doesn't ask me.

    Any ideas?

    Thank you in advance for your replies - if there'll be any.

    How to format and do a fresh android install

    Posted: 27 Jul 2020 02:43 PM PDT

    I have and old phone (used to run 4.4.4), but its buggy and wont start.

    Every time i turn it on it gets stuck on a loop. For a about 5 minutes, just starting and shutting down. After that it will go to the Android system recovery (this) , my question is, can i get like a usb bootable drive and do a fresh install (similar to windows) but with and SD card ?

    "Reboot system now" option just sends it to look again for a while until it gets to same menu.

    Already wiped everything and tried "factory reset", no luck.

    Themes question - Huawei VTR-L09

    Posted: 28 Jul 2020 02:31 AM PDT

    I am confused with themes

    I didn't like the stock theme particularly, so I somehow managed to change it with what was within the phone but I'm not digging it now after a few days and I can't seem to change it back again. But I have no idea what the originally factory one is?

    I just want a simple dark/black theme with no fancy graphics (it's a work phone) But I cannot seem to find one that doesn't involve £90 (GO)

    Is there a way to just download a dead basic theme on my pc and copy it to my phone without a launcher.

    Also, I don't want to be giving my details away unnecessarily if I can help it, privacy matters.

    Can someone point me in the right direction please
